Reparenting Your Inner Child: Attachment, Attunement, ACE Scores & Your Nervous System | Dr. Nicole LePera

Dr. Nicole LePera joins Dr. Will Cole for an in-person conversation on trauma, attachment, and what it actually means to “reparent” the inner child. They explore how early experiences shape the nervous system, why stress can feel familiar, and how modern life and social media can reinforce dysregulation. Nicole breaks down ACE scores, attunement, and why trauma is less about the event and more about the body’s ability to process what happened with support. They also discuss body-based healing tools, including grounding, breathwork, EMDR (and simple forms of bilateral stimulation), and why rest can feel unsafe for many people.
